This was the first time Xiaoya had called Lu Xiaobei by her first and last name. It was different than calling her senior, which carried the feeling of unfamiliarity. It was also different from calling her Captain, which carried a feeling of reverence.

Lowering her head, Xiaoya placed a soft kiss on Lu Xiaobei's lips, "Lu Xiaobei, I don't know if you like me or not, but I like you. I want to us to give it a shot, I want us to love each other until we're old."

When Xiaoya saw Lu Xiaobei writing her name, she asked confusedly, "What are you doing?"

After the confession, when the owner of these clasped fingers said this, Lu Xiaobei thought it was a bit funny, but she still solemnly replied, "Yes, you're my girlfriend."

When Xiaoya saw Lu Xiaobei writing her name, she asked confusedly, "What are you doing?"

Under that Tongxin Tree, where everything seemed like an island cut off from the rest of the world, there was no one else, the only ones who existed was them.


This was a discussion between two equal souls.

When Xiaoya saw Lu Xiaobei writing her name, she asked confusedly, "What are you doing?"

Lu Xiaobei dropped a peck on Xiaoya's cheek, then handed her a wooden name tag.

Lu Xiaobei then took the two two wooden name tags in her hand, looked for a sturdy and high branch, then used her strength to throw it. The ribbon got stuck on the the branch, the card on either side of it helping to keep it balanced.

But, in that moment, the feeling of being touched welling in her chest was just so overwhelming, she could no longer pretend nothing had happened; nor could she just sit there and watch while the distance between them grew greater.

Her heart pounded so hard it felt as though it was about to leap from her chest.

From beside her, Lu Xiaobei pulled out a red ribbon, replying, "Here, help me." Xiaoya used her left hand to match with Lu Xiaobei's right, both of them using the ribbon to tie the two name tags together.

What Lu Xiaobei had said before was right, she was an impetuous person. There won't ever be someone who knows her as well as Lu Xiaobei, and she will never again love any person in the same way, or as deeply, as she does Lu Xiaobei.


From the squatting position Lu Xiaobei was in to tie the laces, she lifted her head slightly, the shock on her face as clear as day. Xiaoya was well aware that once this matter was brought up, there was no undoing it, that once she took the first step, their relationship could never return to what it was before.

N/A

Every organ in Xiaoya's body, every single cell inside of her was screaming and jumping for joy. She finally faced her feelings and found the person she loves.

And the burning hot flame scorching her heart made her unable to wait any longer.

Lowering her head, Xiaoya placed a soft kiss on Lu Xiaobei's lips, "Lu Xiaobei, I don't know if you like me or not, but I like you. I want to us to give it a shot, I want us to love each other until we're old."

At the same time she felt all of this, that heart of hers was also filled with terror. It was as if she was waiting to be tried, one to dictate her love in this world.


But, in that moment, the feeling of being touched welling in her chest was just so overwhelming, she could no longer pretend nothing had happened; nor could she just sit there and watch while the distance between them grew greater.

Xiaoya lifted her head, staring at Lu Xiaobei in a daze. It looked like he had yet to recover from that kiss. Lu Xiaobei then thought bitterly: You dummy, it was clearly you who made the first move.

Lu Xiaobei then took the two two wooden name tags in her hand, looked for a sturdy and high branch, then used her strength to throw it. The ribbon got stuck on the the branch, the card on either side of it helping to keep it balanced.

At first, Xiaoya was stunned at her answer, and felt she had asked a stupid question. But later when she realized it, she said, "I also want to write one. The person I like is a girl too."


Every second she waited felt like countless centuries.

Lu Xiaobei reached out, tucking a lock of hair behind Xiaoya's ear, taking the opportunity to press her palm against the tree. Within the crook of her arm, like a timid little bunny unaware of what was about to happen, was Xiaoya. Lu Xiaobei used her other hand to entwine Xiaoya's fingers into her own, then once more, gently and earnestly, kissed her.

"So, are we finally together?"

Lu Xiaobei then took the two two wooden name tags in her hand, looked for a sturdy and high branch, then used her strength to throw it. The ribbon got stuck on the the branch, the card on either side of it helping to keep it balanced.

Lu Xiaobei held Xiaoya's hand, seeing how absent-minded Xiaoya was and unable to stand still, she directly pulled the other girl down to sit on the grass.


And the burning hot flame scorching her heart made her unable to wait any longer.

"Praying for you," Lu Xiaobei replied.

Tongxin Tree

And the burning hot flame scorching her heart made her unable to wait any longer.

She put great care into every stroke, as if she was trying to pour all her blessings, along with all her love within each character.

After the confession, when the owner of these clasped fingers said this, Lu Xiaobei thought it was a bit funny, but she still solemnly replied, "Yes, you're my girlfriend."


What Lu Xiaobei had said before was right, she was an impetuous person. There won't ever be someone who knows her as well as Lu Xiaobei, and she will never again love any person in the same way, or as deeply, as she does Lu Xiaobei.

And after all her waiting, Xiaoya got the answer she was waiting for. It wasn't a nod, neither was it a shake of the head, nor was it a yes or a no, instead it came in the form of a kiss.

Every second she waited felt like countless centuries.

At first, Xiaoya was stunned at her answer, and felt she had asked a stupid question. But later when she realized it, she said, "I also want to write one. The person I like is a girl too."

"So you were listened to what the boatman and I were talking about. But... isn't it something you do for the girl you like?" Xiaoya asked.

And the burning hot flame scorching her heart made her unable to wait any longer.

To which Lu Xiaobei, with her eyes shining and a smile able to move someone on her face replied, "Yes, that's true, and the person I like is a girl."

What Lu Xiaobei had said before was right, she was an impetuous person. There won't ever be someone who knows her as well as Lu Xiaobei, and she will never again love any person in the same way, or as deeply, as she does Lu Xiaobei.

Xiaoya looked at the numerous tags belonging to others on the branches, feeling puzzled, asked, "How did everybody else get their tags hung on those branches? Did they climb the tree?"

But Xiaoya wasn't left handed, and those three characters she wrote were still a bit crooked. Xiaoya thought about getting another wooden strip to replace it, but Lu Xiaobei stopped her, saying, "The first one is fine."


At the same time she felt all of this, that heart of hers was also filled with terror. It was as if she was waiting to be tried, one to dictate her love in this world.

The first step she made was heaven, but the next step was hell.

"So, are we finally together?"

The two still had their hands clasped, but Xiaoya didn't want to let go. Instead, she chose to used her left hand in order to write Lu Xiaobei's name.

This was the first time Xiaoya had called Lu Xiaobei by her first and last name. It was different than calling her senior, which carried the feeling of unfamiliarity. It was also different from calling her Captain, which carried a feeling of reverence.

Seeing this sort of bashfulness on the other girl, Lu Xiaobei wanted to tease her, but she didn't have the heart to part with her just yet. Using her free hand, she picked up the wooden name tag, writing on it.


The first step she made was heaven, but the next step was hell.

"So, are we finally together?"

Red clouds, ones more delicate than spring's blossoms, ones more brilliant than a summer's bloom, found themselves on Xiaoya's cheeks.

Unlike the light one she had given, like a dragonfly skimming on the water, this one was wet, a kiss which lingered.
